Here’s what some teachers have said so far:

“Had a chance to use 8 of them this last Friday. Very easy to put together. Easy instructions for kids. Can’t wait to use the rest!” – Sharon Y.

“Love, Love, Love!!!! These have been a super resource and my students love playing them.” – Tennille G.

“Great games-way to keep things fresh with my students” – Charmaine Clay

“Love all these activities. I am a former teacher/stay-at-home-mom/substitute/tutor. I am putting these together in a binder to use for my students and to take when I substitute in case we get done early with any lessons the teacher has planned. I’ve read through these as I was organizing and cutting cards. I think these will be easy for the kids to pick up on how to play, great review, and they will love it much better than just doing worksheets.” – Angelina M.

“Easy to use and the kids love these! I had parent volunteers put them all together and it was super easy to motivate the kids to use these. Thank you!” – Danna T.

“Purchased this for the fraction Pictionary…my 5th graders loved it and I can not wait to use more of these fraction file folder games! Thanks!” – Angela Nine

“Easy to assemble and kept students working and thinking!” – Mrs Fish

“Fractions seem to be a concept students can struggle with. What a fun resource and so many ideas to use! Thanks!” – Connie S.

“I love these mazes and used them during our decimal unit also. I have both parents and students requesting these to be printed to practice their math skills! They are highly engaging. I send these home for additional practice and use them as activities to complete after they are done with other classwork. It may seem to be expensive but they are definitely worth it as it covers MANY different fraction topics. Highly recommend.” –  Cassidy Berkheimer

“A wonderful edition to practicing fraction operations without being a worksheet or task cards. My students particularly enjoyed that they could “win” by completing the maze.” – Emma S.

Focus on Fractions Activities

Fractions are one of the harder math concepts for students to learn, but they don’t have to be. One of the big complaints from students when they are struggling is “what does this have to do with anything?” There are so many ways to show students how they use fractions in every day life, from cooking to building. Focus On Fractions provides 50 fraction games and activities to help students understand fractions and decimals better.As educators you know grasping work with fractions and decimals is a key to understanding algebra and higher maths. All kids really want to know is when they are going to use this outside of school, so it’s your job to convince them they will. Unlike many kinds of higher math they might not use as frequently, fractions and decimals are used for so many basic things we take for granted every day. With Focus on Fractions you will have fraction activities on hand to show students all the ways understanding fractions is practical and necessary.Games like “Cooking With Fractions” help students learn how to double or triple a recipe. “Fractions of Time” helps them understand non-digital clocks and time measurements. “Menu Math” helps the students learn how to use decimals as they relate to money. Other fraction activities help them to understand dividing fractions and converting fractions into decimals. Fraction games like “Equivalent Fraction Dominos” and “Fraction Basketball” help them have fun while making the connections between fractions and the different ways they might use them in real life.

With 50 fraction activities total there are many options to choose from to allow students to learn in the method that makes the most sense to each of them. Focus On Fractions activities are designed to be usable with students in 3rd grade through 8th grade and even for homeschoolers.

Here’s a few Example of the Fraction Activities included in this Bundle:

Click Here to download this activity FREE.

Place three cards where students can see them well with the following values written on them: 75%, .78, and 7/10. Students must use pictures, numbers and words to describe their answers to this question: If the highest card wins the round, which card is the winner?

Simplifying Fractions Card Game (War Style)

Click Here to download this activity FREE.

2 Players Game

YOU NEED
– one deck of cards to share (face cards removed).
– Paper
– Pencils

WHAT YOU DO
1. Have each player draw a line across a sheet of paper to represent a fraction bar.
2. Players shuffle their deck of cards and distribute evenly between themselves.
3. Each player lays the stack of cards face down in front of them.
4. At the same time, players turn over one card and place it above the fraction bar (numerator position).
5. Turn over another card and place it below the fraction bar (denominator position).
6. There should be a card above the bar and a card below the bar, giving you four cards total. Making a 2 digit fraction over a two digit fraction (14/26)
7. The first player to simplify the fraction correctly gets to keep all four cards. If tie, split the cards.
If it cannot be simplified, each player should collect the card the other player put down and put it at the bottom of his deck.
8. Game is over when one player has collected all of the cards. You can also set a time limit. When time is up, whoever has the most cards wins!

The Next Level: Try adding more cards, making it 3 cards over 3 cards….

Fraction Basketball (Parts of a Whole)

Click Here to download this activity FREE.

MATERIALS: Something to toss such as (crumpled paper, ping pong ball, etc.) Containers (small waste baskets or whatever you can find) Score Sheet PREPARATION: Each team places a trash can or container the same distance away from an established point (shooting line). Place tape on the point chosen. Make sure the distance is the same for each team’s shooting line to the container. HOW TO PLAY: Pick a team to go first. One at a time, each member of the first team stands at the shooting line and tries to shoot the crumpled paper into their basket. After every shot attempt, each team fills out their score sheet in the appropriate space by their name. The team with the highest score wins the game.

Fraction Flip It (Multiplying and Dividing Fractions)

Click Here to download this activity FREE.

MATERIALS:
– Deck of playing cards,
– Fraction Flip It GAME SHEET
– paper and pencil for each player

PREPARE: Remove the face cards from the deck. Print out a copy of the game sheet for each player.

1. Shuffle the cards and stack them face down.
2. Player 1 draws the top card and places it on the game sheet.
3. Players continue drawing cards and placing them until they have filled all four spaces.
4. Each player multiplies the two fractions (aces = 1) and simplifies the answer if possible.
5. Player’s opponents check work.
6. Players compare correct answers and score points according to the code on game sheet. Players score in more than one category: Example – Correct answer is 5 points, did not have to simplify is 15 points, smallest answer of all the player’s answers is 5 points. So, for round 1 this player’s score would be 25.
7. Shuffle cards, and play Round 2. Play 12 rounds and whoever has the most points wins!

Visualizing Equivalent Fractions

Click Here to download this activity FREE.

This activity provides an excellent visualization of equivalent fractions. Give each student a piece of white copy paper that’s blank. Have them fold it horizontally in half, open it again, and color one half of the paper. Next, have them fold the paper into fourths (half, then half again). Have them open up the paper and tell you how many fourths are equal to one half (2/4=1/2). Have them record this answer in a math journal for reference. Continue the same way having students fold the paper into eighths and sixteenths, each time recording their answers. As a challenge, they can then discover from their folded paper any other fractions that are equivalent! Fractional Me is a portrait created out of small squares and an activity that incorporates art! Younger students will use only whole squares, and older students can use squares cut into fourths, or even eighths! They glue the squares down to form a portrait, or picture, of themselves. They then must determine the fractional amounts of squares for each color used. These make a great display. Students can also calculate the portraits of their friends’ pictures.
